I'm curiuos what you're talking about. The manual says nothing about this
in the PCRE section:
Example 1. Examples of valid patterns
* <\/\w+>/
* |(\d{3})-\d+|Sm
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pcre.php
The Pattern Syntax page has a backslashes section which states: In
particular, if you want to match a backslash, you write "\\".
Then, all of my patterns work just fine w/o escaping the backslashes.
So, uh, what are you talking about? :)

For starters, if Perl wants \ PHP needs \\ since \ is special in both
languages.
